Describe an object that describes you:
A vintage Timex wristwatch, circa 1970 with a stretchy metal band.
Dependable.
Consistent.
Comfortable.
Casual.
Plain face.
Stylish in its own way with a flash of silver like a crooked smile.
Always moving forward. Sometimes second by second, other times making bigger leaps until time is lost and I wonder how I ended up here.
At times, a know it all.
It’s 10:30 a.m.
It’s Tuesday.
It’s May 16.
The cold metal on my wrist reminding me I’m alive.

What about you? What object are you?
I ‘d like to feel I am a grand piano, but I fear I’m actually half a pair of socks…
Well, socks are warm and comfortable. Some can be fancy, whimsical. Tightly knit. Practical. It’s all how you look at a thing. Or person.
At this minute I feel remarkably like the toasted English muffin with cream cheese and home-made marmalade I just finished snacking on after a lovely afternoon pottering in the garden with Mrs Widds. 🙂
Gosh, that marmalade sounds good.
